    Is it possible for a Newcastle 939 to be 90nm?

    one last thing - SMK warrantees their OEM chip for 1 year (ewiz is 6months) and you can extend that to 3 years for $10 (@SMK). I can't see the processor failing (outside of an immediate problem) unless I burn it up - not warranteed for that - but it might affect someone's purchase decision...
